many latinos are disillusioned with president barack obama. the reality is that he has deported more immigrants than any other president in the history of the united states and he broke a promise. he said that in 2008 and it's very difficult for latinos to believe president barack obama. however, when latinos have to choose between president barack obama who still supports immigration reform and the dream act, and governor romney, who supports self-deportation, who says that he's going to veto the dream act, who doesn't have a plan for 11 million undocumented immigrants, he's saying he has a permanent solution but hasn't given any specifics. when latinos have a choice, they still prefer president barack obama. >> maria, you reinforced this earlier. when people think of the latino vote, where it's especially important, people typically think of states, big populations like florida or california, but as you said, if you look at a state like colorado, where the president and governor romney are neck and neck, 13% of the electorate that's latino,

there's a new survey from latino decisions that is showing 69% of latino voters in colorado saying they're very enthusiastic about voting this year. 54% saying they're more enthusiastic this year than in '08. you try to put together the jobs point you just brought up and the fact they haven't heard the messages they want to. how does the enthusiasm or lack of enthusiasm for some voters in the latino community add up? there's a myth that says they are not going to go out and vote. >> well, one thing we learned in 2010, and i think this has been a con standpoistant with latino is that when we asked people in 2010 if their decision to come out to vote was to support the can ddidate of their choice, or whether it was to take a stand and for the latino community, for the respect of the latino community, a plurality of voters said for the kmuncommunity. that tled continues now. the more they grow their political influence, political influence the more both parties have to move forward on agenda that addresses the challenges the nation is facing. >> and the romney campaign saying they need 38% of

in 2010 it was good news for latinos that we saw latinos run successfully in non-majority latino districts. they demonstrated that they have successful candidates. latino voters were able to show they were discerning and just because there was a latino name on the ballot they did not flocked to that name. we continue to push for our society that reflects what our country really looks like. it challenges these notions. on the media, that is what sometimes happens. if you have a commentator for an african-american or latino, and now you are the issue expert. >> the justice was a great nomination. she serves as an romano -- ron model. this is the most qualified supreme court nominee in 60 years. she kicks off ass in her professions the response wasn't that she was not that smart. some law clerks says she was temperamental. where was the conversation about her record? the conversation was about her being nominated and being the first latina. what about how impeccable her record was as a judge in new york? >> you have heard the same thing about the president. newscasters talk about a summer nig

it's a turnout question among young voters and latinos and african americans. these voters don't like mitt romney, but they've got to turn out in the numbers that obama saw in '08 for him to have a good chance. >> domenico, after his infamous reports about binders full of women, mitt romney is off on a bus full of women, those who have worked with the man. but his claim during the debate that women have lost 580,000 jobs in the last four years is, i believe, not strictly accurate, is that right? >> no, it's not. it's a number that's really outdated. it's a number that had he said it back in march, which he had been saying, it would have been true. but now if you calculate the number, it's only 283,000 if you calculate from january. now, there's some debate whether or not you should calculate from january or from february. february is the month -- the first full month that any president serves. if you calculate from february, well, that number drops to just 82,000 jobs that have been lost. so either way you look at it, romney wasn't accurate at the debate. >> so
